painting update

We've been painting our front sitting area. The old color was a light yellow that was probably the color put on when the house was built. We are painting it a dark brown called pumpernickel. It looks really nice (in our opinion) and makes the white trim "pop". There's just a little bit left to do before we can move a few pieces of furniture back in. It was a harder area to paint just because the wall spaces are smaller and there are several doors to paint around. We also had to kind of maneuver the furniture to make room to paint. Thank goodness Andy is strong enough to move my old piano and my old desk pretty much by himself! A few more days and we should be finished!
